Wow this month is flying by, slow down time, slow down! Blogging after my piano lesson as I sit here listening to my girl have her lesson.
Recycling is going well, I can not believe how little trash we have now. I found a recycling center in town that recycles practically everything! Why did I ever put this off for so long, it's really not hard and makes me feel good that our family is doing a small part to help our earth.
Doing good using reusable bags at the stores, I thought the store clerks would hate me, but they have all been so obliging and kind, yay!
Haven't been able to cut driving down as much as I wanted to, might have to scrap that one from my list...it's impossible! My girl is attending a cooking camp at church, which she is loving, so now I'm driving her back and forth to that this week, it's farther then her school...oh well, I'm looking forward to her making our family dinner afterwards! :)
I've bought nothing but groceries and gifts lately so I haven't made it to any second hand stores yet...and right now I'm window shopping online for great deals on toys and sports equipment for our mission trip team to take to Haiti in a few weeks...it's coming fast! So much for only shopping locally ;)
I am being more conscience of turning off lights and using less water by taking shorter showers so that's good.
This seven month experiment has been good for me, it's making me appreciate everything we've been blessed with so much more. I really desire to be a blessing to others...it takes time, and I'm sure I'll never feel like I've arrived. One thing for sure there are numerous people in my life that have been a blessing to me, and I'm truly grateful to God for all of them!
